US EditionDozens arrested during ongoing unrest in Minneapolis
At least 42 people were arrested amid escalating violence tied to recent federal agent-involved killings, prompting calls for federal law enforcement reduction in Minnesota.
- On Saturday, anti-ICE protesters at the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building, Minneapolis threw ice and damaged property, leading to at least 42 arrests by the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office.
- The unrest traces to the Jan.7 killing of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good during an encounter with ICE officers and grew after the Jan.24 shooting of 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti by federal agents.
- After clashes, authorities called in reinforcements including the Minnesota State Patrol as the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office declared the protest unlawful; a deputy was struck and a squad vehicle windshield broken.
- Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey have urged removal of the remaining 2,000 CBP and ICE officers, while the Trump administration defended federal enforcement, Walz said last week.
- In broader remarks, President Donald Trump said he wants cities safe for residents and defended federal efforts, claiming crime figures in Minneapolis fell 25, 30% after thousands were removed.
